Nicola Waight presented the report on behalf of the Head of Transport & Environment and wished to add an extra recommendation regarding Ferry Road. Councillor Sanders asked when the alternatives would come forward regarding Ferry Road. It was reported that officers were working on this but there were some legal issues that would affect the timeframe. Councillor Sanders also highlighted the concern regarding protection of the dropped kerb at Whitecliffe Avenue as there may be an extension to the double yellow lines to help indicate where this was.
DECISION:
That the Order is brought into operation as advertised, with the following exceptions:
(i) the proposal to reduce the double yellow lines on the south side of Devonshire Avenue (west of Prince Albert Road junction) in light of the response from Portsmouth Cycle Forum;
(ii) the deletion of the proposed extension of double yellow lines in Ferry Road (as referred to in paragraph 4.3 of the report) so that proposals for the whole of this road can be considered.
